316L stainless steel

Product catalog summary
Material Overview: The document provides technical specifications for 316L stainless steel, known for its corrosion resistance and performance in extreme temperatures. It is commonly used in chemical processing, saltwater environments, and various fixtures.
Mechanical Properties: The mechanical properties of 316L stainless steel are detailed as follows:
  • Yield Strength: 165 MPa (ASTM E8M)
  • Ultimate Tensile Strength: 494 MPa (ASTM E8M)
  • Elongation at Break: 51% (ASTM E8M)
  • Hardness: 67 HRB (ASTM E18)
  • Density: 95% relative (ASTM B311)
These values are based on standard as-sintered conditions and wrought values per ASTM A240 standards.
Testing and Standards: The document references several standards and tests:
  • ASTM E8M for mechanical properties
  • MPIF Standard 35 for metal injection molded parts
  • ASTM F1089 for corrosion resistance tests, including boil and copper sulfate tests, both of which the material passes
Composition: The preliminary composition of 316L stainless steel includes:
  • Iron (Fe): Balance
  • Chromium (Cr): 16-18%
  • Nickel (Ni): 10-14%
  • Molybdenum (Mo): 2-3%
  • Manganese (Mn): Max 2.0%
  • Silicon (Si): Max 1.0%
  • Carbon (C): Max 0.045%
Additional Information: The document notes that material performance can be influenced by factors such as part geometry, design, and application conditions. It also mentions that the information is subject to change without notice.
